Github is probably the leading forge for open-source projects at the moment. However, it is not FOSS which for core FOSS developers is always a hurting point. In two weeks, I developed a light-weight, python and git based forge allowing anyone to create their project. The forge includes a small, git-based, documentation browser as well as a light-weight issue tracker. The project can be forged and pull-requests created and merged. This project may remain forever a proof of concept but it shows that it is possible to compete with github from a technical point of view, the harder part being the social-web aspect that github offers.
